This site is a staple of many book clubs, publishing companies, and students with a literary itch to scratch. Check out the genre-specific lists or your friends' bookshelves, rate and review books, and create a wish list of future reads.

We all pose this question occasionally. The next time you do, click on over to this website and enter an author or book title in the search engine. WSIRN? will generate a list of related books and authors based on a database of over 80,000 titles and more than one million reader recommendations.

This site is not exclusively for books -- it also contains categories for movies and music-- but the literature map is a distinct feature. Type in an author's name, and a scattered list of relevant author names will appear, with those most closely aligned with the original author's style or genre closest in proximity.
